Philips Semiconductors Objective Specification, Revision 2.2 Pre-Amplifier for Hard Disk Drive with MR-Read / Inductive Write Heads 4 TDA5360 DESCRIPTION The +/- 5.0 volt pre-amplifier for HDD described here has been designed for 12 terminals, comprised of a SAL or GMR magneto-resistive reader and an inductive thin film writer. In read mode, the device operates as a low noise differential preamplifier which senses resistance changes in the MR element that correspond to flux changes on the disk.

Philips Semiconductors Objective Specification, Revision 2.2 Pre-Amplifier for Hard Disk Drive with MR-Read / Inductive Write Heads 9 TDA5360 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION 9.1 Active READ mode Taking RWN high and programming bits MODE0 and MODE1 (see Reg.09) selects the read mode. The Head select inputs, in serial register, select the appropriate head. In read mode, the circuit provides either a constant power bias or a constant current bias that flows from the P to the N side of the MR section of the head.
Philips Semiconductors Objective Specification, Revision 2.2 Pre-Amplifier for Hard Disk Drive with MR-Read / Inductive Write Heads 9.2 TDA5360 Active WRITE mode Taking RWN low from an Active READ mode selects the Active WRITE mode. The head select inputs, in a serial register, select the appropriate head. In write mode the circuit acts as a current switch with write current toggled between the P and N directions of the thinfilm section of the selected head x.
Philips Semiconductors Objective Specification, Revision 2.2 Pre-Amplifier for Hard Disk Drive with MR-Read / Inductive Write Heads 9.5 TDA5360 SLEEP mode The sleep mode is selected by programming bits MODE0 and MODE1. (see Reg.09) In Sleep Mode, the IC is accessible via the Serial Interface.
Philips Semiconductors Objective Specification, Revision 2.2 Pre-Amplifier for Hard Disk Drive with MR-Read / Inductive Write Heads TDA5360 10 BIASING OF THE MR ELEMENT This preamplifier has been designed for SAL and GMR elements. Programming bit GMR in Reg. 01 select either a SAL range (LOW) or a GMR range (HIGH). By programming bit PORI in Reg. 01, the user can program either a constant current bias (LOW) or a constant power bias (HIGH) for the MR element.
Philips Semiconductors Objective Specification, Revision 2.2 Pre-Amplifier for Hard Disk Drive with MR-Read / Inductive Write Heads 10.2 TDA5360 Fault Mode Fault conditions are indicated on the FLT pin (HIGH during write mode and LOW during read mode). The fault condition is coded and stored in Reg. 07 for monitoring purposes. The fault code is cleared on power up, on system reset and on writing to Reg.09 The FLT output is an open collector to an external resistor of 5Kohms connected to +5V.

Philips Semiconductors Objective Specification, Revision 2.2 Pre-Amplifier for Hard Disk Drive with MR-Read / Inductive Write Heads TDA5360 The aim of the TAC is to limit the amplitude and the duration of the perturbation seen at the reader output. Because thermal asperity amplitude is not constant, the TAC need some threshold programmation to define the sharpness of the response. note that reducing the TAC threshold also impact the Low corner frequency value of the read amplifier.
